Drawing inspiration from the ocean, sun, earth and atmosphere, OSEA was founded by mother-daughter duo, Jenefer and Melissa Palmer. Hailing from a long tradition of healers who valued the wisdom of nature, they were inspired in particular by the healing benefits of seaweed.  In 1996, they recognized the need for clean, synthetic-free skincare that swiftly became a pioneering approach. More than two decades later, the same ethos prevails, accompanied by a complete range of skincare solutions that blend the latest technological advancements with a deep respect for the world around them.

Sustainability is intrinsic to everything we do at OSEA. Beyond our products, which are meticulously harvested and sourced, we consider bottling, fulfillment, shipping and product life-cycle to be important considerations in our footprint upon the earth. For us, sustainability is self-care, and we constantly strive to innovate and deliver the highest quality experience with the lowest environmental impact.

Certified organic seaweed is the cornerstone of our formulations. As one of earth’s most bioavailable sources of vitamins, amino acids, antioxidants and essential fatty acids, it has the power to transform your skin. 

To ensure the purest quality, we harvest our seaweed from the pristine waters of Patigonia, working with local collectives to support and sustain the vibrant aquatic environment.
